The Blackwell Encyclopedia of the Russian Revolution Summary

The Blackwell Encyclopedia of the Russian Revolution by Harold Shukman

This single volume is a guide to the background and progress of the Revolution, written by a team of over 40 specialist contributors. Beginning with the radical movements of the mid-19th century, the encyclopedia covers the development of the revolutionary movement created by the intelligentsia, the condition of the peasants, the working class, and the army, the role of the Tsarist secret police, the agents provocateurs, and the revolutionaries' own underground. A substantial section is devoted to the emergence of liberation movements among the national minorities of the borderlands. The encyclopedia also considers the formation of Soviet institutions, and examines the emergence of revolutionary culture well before 1917, the avant-garde in art and theatre, and the relationship to the revolution of three major Russian writers, Blok, Gorky and Mayakovsky.
